kitty in the window

If I can’t photograph you at home, I would love to photograph you on vacation. My clients who travel to southern California have a different frame of mind. When you are on vacation, everything else tends to fly out the window. Your focus is entirely on the togetherness of your family, and taking in new things. That is the perfect frame of mind, in my opinion. I go at the session with a different frame of mind as well. Instead of following you around doing the things that come normally to your daily routine, I follow you around while you explore a new place. I get a little bit of that vacation magic.

This is the Russell family, who were on vacation, and who I have photographed twice before. (I could only find their first session on the blog – darn!)

Alison sent me a card after seeing her images that said something like this, “Thank you Tara. You help me to see the beauty of my life.”

Thank you Alison, you help me to see the beauty in mine.

  1. You’re good. I’m just starting to find my way in this business. I know you hear this a lot but…WOW, your work is amazing :). I don’t know if I’ll be as a good as you but I hope….

  2. two more things. doing just this = traveling to California and having a session with you. also seeing the ocean which i’ve yet to see and so desperately yearn to see! second thing: really cool to see how your art has changed over the years. i love your stuff, tara! your spirit warms my heart.

  3. I was skimming past this post… my 3 year old starts screaming in my ear, “I wanna see the ride! I wanna see the ride!”
    So I gave in and scrolled back… she gasped and said “ohhhhhh” So if you need a testimonial:
    “*gasp* ohhhhhhh”
